Repainting Metal Siding

Lasts much longer than repainting.

Repainting metal siding. The process of repainting pre finished metal siding is a little different than it is for other types of exterior surfaces. When ready pour the primer into the paint container on the sprayer or pour the primer into the paint tray. It also helps to peel away the previous paint on the steel siding leaving it neat and clean. Wash the steel siding with trisodium phosphate tsp and use a pressure washer to rinse thoroughly.

For steel use a latex bonding primer instead of a regular metal paint primer. I worked my way down the ladder blasting away the detergent and chalk cleaning one wall at a time. Restore the look of your home with a new covering of paint over siding. As with all exterior painting projects proper surface preparation is the key to restoring your metal siding.

Then apply the primer to the metal siding in even strokes. Easier than painting siding. Less expensive than painting. Restore the original color and finish instead.

No masking or expensive tool. The first step includes cleaning. Begin by thoroughly cleaning your siding of all loose dirt chalk and other contaminants. Everbrite is a clear coating that will restore the original color and finish of your metal siding.

This will help clean away all the dirt that accumulates on the steel siding. Steel siding lasts for years with a minimal amount of maintenance required to preserve both the look and protective properties of the material. Step 1 clean the steel siding. Over time however even the best of maintenance can fail to prevent paint peeling from the siding.
